    Good niche chain if you love ube! Relaxed vibe and a cool hangout place. Fast service and the staff make good drinks. I got the upside down halo halo that has more ube than the traditional version and some tapioca pearls. It was delicious. More on the pricier side for a halo halo but this is a specialized cafe and they have various ube treats and provide a nice place to interact with others and decompress so I would say it is justified.

    Who doesn't love ube??! This location is very lively where it feels like it is the first location. They seem to have more services like catering specials for this location, location specific specials and they want you to hang out here. The food and drinks are still the same from what I am used to which is nice to know. Plenty of free parking in the lot.

    Honestly this cafe 86 is my favorite . The decor is top notch. They have some things that are like , if you know you know. I'd have some of these things in my man cave if I could. The service was kind and friendly too. Julie was really warm and welcoming. It's always a plus when you get great service with great food. My favorite thing here is the ube monster. When my sweet tooth hits this is what I want. The pastries are also good . Those aren't too sweet. Definitely coming back here as a repeat customer. I suggest you check this place out. Parking is easy as well in the plaza so you don't got to worry about that .

    Always great conversations and new treats to order or buy! love their cookie butter blended latte and upside down halo halo!! got me some magnets from ube garage too!!

    Ordered a matcha from here and the crack cheesecake. The matcha was a tad sweet for my taste but I had lowered the amount. The music was pretty good and they played hiphop. The staff were really friendly and helped me decide on which dessert to get. The crack cheesecake wasn't very sweet and it had great flavor. The workers also checked on how the drink was so I appreciated that.

    Went for the halo halo. One upside down halo halo and one mais. I've had the upside down one at the West Covina location. Love how it's mostly Ube ice cream, hence the upside down! The Mais want not corny at all, no pun intended. It was just creamed corn at the bottom. No other jellies. Maybe if they put corn ice cream? Pretty good place to chill out. Talk over drinks and desserts. Plenty of parking! Service was service, nothing out of the ordinary.

    Fun place to grab desserts and drinks! Cafe 86 does Filipino inspired drinks and desserts. They also have a few sandwiches on the menu: grilled cheese, chicken pesto, pastrami. Cafe 86 is a family owned chain and am happy that they opened up a store in Glendale and Eagle Rock, Ca. This location in Eagle Rock shares a parking lot with Sprouts Market and other nearby businesses. I never had issues with parking here. Good location. Service is very friendly and helpful.

    Upside Down Halo Halo

    I LOVE LOVE cafe 86. Psyched that the eagle rock one is open! Recently met the new owners Elaine and Andrew, who are super friendly and sweet. They are so excited to own this awesome shop. Why wouldn't they? Literally everything in there is so good. My top faves: ube truffle, mais con yelo bar, the best halo halo in town (upside down version), and the ube cheesecake. All of their shakes are also ridiculously rich and delicious. The inside is humble and clean. They always play good background music too. I also love now that they have a rewards/points system going for their loyal customers. I also really love the ample free parking in that plaza. We'll be seeing you guys soon! My cravings need to be satisfied every week

    I've been wanting to go to Cafe 86 for a while and when I finally went, it did not disappoint! I love the pastries they offer. I couldn't try everything, but the ones I've tried are so good. I love that everything is filipino-based dessert and I love that this place is not afraid to display its filipino roots. I genuinely believe that this place also provides a good place to study because when I went, there were a lot of people working or studying. The vibes and ambiance gives study cafe! You already know the workers are all very friendly too!!

    Servers are super friendly! They welcome you as soon as you enter their branch. Got our halo-halo and looked exactly in the picture which is definitely not a disappointment. Love their ube halo-halo upside down, but wanted to try the mais con yelo (translated as corn with ice) which is okay. I still prefer the ube. Next time I come back, I'm reverting to the upside down ube halo-halo.

    Tina S.

    Great food, service, and ambiance!!! The ube leche flan is the best-- the richness and flavorfulness of both the flan and ube will really satisfy your cravings for a great dessert! Plus the ambience is really cool and uplifting, very timely for halloween. Also, we met the owners, Elaine and Andrew who were so warm and friendly.

    Halo Halo

    LOVE this franchise! Their halo halo is the best out there. Whenever we are near one, we make sure we come to visit. Their halo halo is enough to share, good luck trying to finish it on your own. It is delicious, but huge. This location has plenty of extra treats to order from. Definitely recommend

    Cookie Butter Latte 10/10

    Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Stumbled across this place based off of reviews and happy that I did because I ordered a cookie butter latte which was so perfect. Cookie butter lattes are usually so super sweet but the flavors were perfectly incorporated together. And I got to try the strawberry cheesecake that they had as a Mother's Day treat which so delicious. Definitely coming back here also whoever is into Ube this is ur place they have ube overload of everything:

    Ever since discovering this place, it's become one of my favorite post-dinner dessert spots…read morewhenever I'm in the area. The Bualoy Salted Egg Shaved Ice was a standout. The shaved ice was incredibly soft and creamy, almost melting in your mouth, while the toppings added a great variety of textures. Between the chewy bualoy, crunchy cookies, and the salted egg sauce to drizzle over the top, every bite felt well balanced without being overly sweet. Seating is limited, so it may be difficult to find a table during busier hours, especially if you're ordering shaved ice. The plaza also offers valet parking only.

To share, we had the following: -Mango Sticky Rice: This honestly was my favorite without all the bells and whistles.

The sweet cream tied everything together, it was just so good! -Mango Sticky Rice Sundae: The same mango sticky rice, but with added scoops of gelato. The gelato here was creamy and good! -Mango Sticky Rice Shaved Ice: Yummy and I like how there were a good amount of chunks of mango and sticky rice throughout the ice. The ice was soft and creamy, great for the summer! The interior is cute with some seating and tables. They also have a single private bathroom available. Totally doable for a group, just expect it to be a bit tight. For parking, there's limited valet only spots in front of the shop, but you can also park further away for free.

They have chairs and tables for you to hang out and eat/drink what you purchased. There's also just benches if you wanna lounge. I've seen people here working on their laptop and groups of people around one table so the vibe is chill and friendly. It also depends on what time of day you come. Weekends usually get packed. As for the drinks and food. What we've had here has always been good. Best to eat their Croffle and baked goods there. Although Matcha is not for my liking, I'm more for their Taro Drink. B says the Matcha here is one of the better ones she's had. I have to agree even their Matcha Ice Cream is good. We get is the Matcha Croffle + Ice Cream, Matcha Einspanner, Taro Einspanner, and their cakes. Only thing I knocked down a star is because Not all the workers know the answers to your questions of what is in what food item or if you can substitute the milks. So that's something Cafe Upper should train all staff. Especially if people have food allergies.

Personally, I don't like that style, I was hoping the original would change that for me! Long story short, I didn't like the Walnut Chocolate Chip. I personally just don't like that style still, so I'll chalk it up as a "me" problem. The cooked part was good. The Rocky Road was cooked through. It was an amazing baked good with good flavor and add-ins. Between the roasted almond slices and fudgey chocolate chips, I was enjoying it immensely. A highlight of my day for sure.

Based on my memories, this LA location keeps it consistent with a similar taste and texture as the NY location. 3.5/5 Chocolate Chip Walnut: This cookie was tall and slightly undercooked in the middle. The middle was a bit on the squishy side, and crunchy on the outside. Due to the undercooked quality, it's not a cookie I'd get regularly, though I am a big chocolate chip cookie fan. 5/5 Rocky Road: This was delicious. I'm not usually a marshmallow fan, but the addition of this ingredient formed a nice chewy consistency that I expect from a cookie. Chocolatey tidbits were well melted into the cookie texture and produced some fudgey notes. The cookie sizes are large and potentially shareable, and feel like an every once in awhile treat.
